The Constitution states that there will be two senators per state. With the current 50 states, there are 100 Senators.
The number of members in The House of Representatives has been fixed at 435 members since 1911. The number of Representatives for each state is determined by population, with each state guaranteed one representative. South Dakota has one, California has 53. The number of representatives is re-apportioned between states every 10 year census. The highest number of representatives was 437 when Alaska and Hawaii were added in 1959, but reduced by re-apportionment back to 435 after the 1960 census.

2 Senate Seats per state, totalling 100. House seats depend on how many people live in the state.
the senate allows 2 per state so 100 per floor
Currently there are 100 seats in the U-S Senate. Each state in the Union (in this day and age, that is 50 states) is allowed two seats in the Senate. This is in the Constitution of the U-S. 50 x2 equals 100.
There are one hundred senators, two from each state in the union. If you include the President of the Senate, who is not an elected senator but who is the sitting vice president of the US, you could say there are 101 seats. The President of the Senate can break a tie vote.
